On my main account sold about three items earlier today, and each time I tried to print a label the address autocorrected into something different.
For example buyer had an address like
123 Northwest St
it would change into
123 Northwest Lane
Sometimes it would change the city as well! Each time I’ve tried to print a label. Is this a glitch on eBay’s end?

Not a glitch but rather an auto correct feature. If the system updates the address to something else, you should be ok. I recently had a buyer warn me after purchasing my item that I needed to ship it to a newly created zip code different from the one associated with the buyer’s user name. I told the buyer I could only ship to the address listed. However, when I printed the label, it updated (in PayPal) to the address the buyer had given me. If you want to be extra careful, you could ask the buyer about the change and also look up both addresses on google maps.

The zip code is often the same but the address and city would usually change
however I didn’t notice an issue when I tried to print a label from PayPal. So I just printed those labels from there.
I think if sellers are having this issue, they should double check the address with the buyer if they’re having doubts
if not it’s better to just print via PayPal.
